Reviewer comment:
The author states his purpose in the Preface. He does not consider this a
'contribution to philosophy." It is an argument opposing 'positivism' and
insisting that deductive reasoning to formulate theory is the proper basis for
a 'scientific' approach. He writes: "Thhis essay proposes to sress the
fact that there is in the universe something for the description and analysis
of which the natural sciences cannot contribute anything".
